A Look at Restaurant Flatware

Commercial flatware includes forks, spoons, knives, and other types of cutlery. Generally, restaurant silverware refers to any implement that is used to eat, serve, and prepare food. The most common type of commercial silverware include forks, knives, and commercial spoons.

Traditionally, the best type of restaurant supply flatware was made of silver, hence the term “silverware.” Nowadays, commercial silverware need not be made of silver, and restaurant silverware can refer to any flatware or tableware regardless of the type of material used.

Types of Commercial Flatware

Typically, there are three common types of commercial silverware or flatware: modern restaurant flatware, formal restaurant silverware, and classic commercial silverware.

The modern type of commercial flatware feature contemporary designs ideal for restaurants that have a modern ambiance or feel. These types of restaurants will likely appeal more to the young urban professionals. Modern commercial flatware often has designs that are more simplistic and minimalistic.

On the other hand, formal restaurant silverware is ideal for use in fine-dining restaurants or banquets and are designed for high-end food-service establishments where class and luxury is the norm. Classic commercial silverware, however, can appeal to both owners of commercial restaurants as well as households.
